FIELD

The present disclosure relates to a medical contact tracing, trackingand passport device. More specifically, it relates to a pandemicwristband functioning as a medical passport for fast and thoroughtracking, tracing and contacting.

BACKGROUND

With the current global coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic taking almost600,000 lives in the United States and more than 3 million livesglobally, time is of the essence to develop a unified global plan, aswell as a coordinated plan within each country.

There have been various attempts to track, trace, and contactindividuals. Currently, the turnaround time and related processing,mostly based on phone communications, is of too many human hours, withan average waiting time of about a week to contact those that have beenexposed. Using the old-fashioned-way to track, trace, and contacteveryone represents a nearly impossible task.

As a consequence, there is a need for a technical solution that trackseveryone without risking their privacy and allows contacting everyonethat has been exposed faster than the current several human hours.Ability to track, trace, and contact individuals accurately andcompletely has become a necessary requirement.

SUMMARY

The medical tracking and passport device according to the presentdisclosure provides a technical solution to help end the global pandemicfor the United States and globally.

Advantageously, such tracking device and passport does more than justtracking and tracing, it can be used to potentially contact anyoneexposed on the same day a positive test result occurs.

The solution presented through the herein described pandemic wristbandis to be preferred to the use of cell phones as such. Using cell phonesrisks privacy and it is likely that a high percentage of individualswill not opt in, due to the ability of personal cell phones to be usedas a means to track people. Using cell phones would likely provide anunreliable reading, as only a limited number of users will adopt a newtechnology, not to mention the fact that many people do not own cellphones, or carry them at all times.

While the use of the present pandemic wristband is currently targetedwith reference to COVID-19, the person skilled in the art willunderstand that the wristband may be used for any type of pandemics. Inparticular, with any kind of pandemic, if immunity can be obtained froma disease, virus and/or infection through e.g. a vaccine, the greenlight provided by the device according to the present disclosure will besuitable for being used as a passport for the purpose not only oftravel, but also acceptance to social gathering places and events suchas restaurants, gyms, stores, entertainment and so on.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The medical tracking device and passport according to the presentdisclosure is intended for positive use in helping every single personthat wears it. The wristband is preferably waterproof and locks on theuser's wrist like a hospital bracelet. If desired or required, thewristband can be designed to be removable. In such case, the wristbandfastening would operate similarly to a sports band, thus also allowingthe wristband to be removed when needed from children if deemednecessary. Having a pandemic wristband that locks on like a hospitalbracelet until cut off would give more validity to the data and solutionthis would provide.

FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the pandemic wristband (100) according tothe present disclosure, provided by way of example and not oflimitation.

A watch face (110) is located on top of a wristband (145). The face(110) includes a first section (135) for showing a QR code for scanningpurposes, a second section (140) under the first section showing anidentification (ID) number, a third section (115, 120) to the right ofthe first section showing red (115) and green (120) lights respectively,and a fourth section (125, 130) under the ID number (140) to showwebsite information. According to an embodiment of the presentdisclosure, presence of a red light indicates occurred exposure of theuser and necessity for priority testing. The green light indicatesimmunity.

The device further includes a location tracker, such as a GPS device,together with wireless adapter for Wi-Fi® and/or Bluetooth®connectivity. The combination of the location tracker and wirelessadapter allows tracking information about the location of the user to besent, for example, to a repository at a remote location and be saved forat least a predetermined amount of time.

The red light indicator (115) is normally in an OFF state. According tothe present disclosure, as soon as an individual has tested positive fora pandemic such as COVID-19, the related information is communicated tothe repository. By way of example and not of limitation, suchinformation can be input locally at the facility where the individualwas tested if applicable, or where the results are obtained, or simplymailed out to the repository. Upon receipt at the repository, the storedlocation information of the individual will be reviewed (preferably bymeans of software for fast track, trace, and contact, or alternativelyby human, if desired) in order to allow retrieval of the ID numbers ofany wristband wearer that was within a certain distance from thediagnosed individual. As soon as such ID numbers are traced andidentified, a contacting signal is sent to all the individualsidentified by such ID numbers to automatically turn the red light (115)ON and provide additional information through one or more website URLsin sections (125, 130). Such URL sections can provide information bothfor device initialization purposes and for testing location indication,as also explained later, to help exposed individuals find a convenientlocation to go to for priority testing and potentially prepare forquarantine. If desired, the red light indicator (115) can alsooptionally briefly flash at predetermined intervals. The flashing wouldstop as soon as testing occurs. Alternatively, the flashing could juststart and stop at predetermined or random intervals.

In other words, the red light indicator (115) indicates exposure in casethe user has come in contact or proximity to people that have testedpositive. If desired, the device may also include a vibratingarrangement to alert the user if visually impaired. The website URLscontain relevant information for testing purposes and/or requiredisolation. The exposed individuals will be able to go online and type intheir ID number to find a convenient location to go to for prioritytesting and potentially prepare for quarantine. In this respect, theinformation encoded in the device through the QR code (135) may beeasily read/scanned at testing sites, medical facilities, shelters, oradditional allocated locations, through already existing technology.

Turning now to the green light indicator (120), such indicator isautomatically activated (turned ON) by the overseeing authority once itis determined that immunity i) after recovery from COVID-19 or any otherpandemic has been persistent for a determined amount of time (e.g. 1month) or ii) after a sufficient amount of time has passed aftervaccination (e.g. 2 weeks after the first shot for 1-shot vaccines or 2weeks after the second shot for 2-shot vaccines). The potential presenceof such additional indicator (120) is preferred, as it would, forexample, allow individuals to circulate without a mask, thus equatingthe device to a medical passport. Additionally, the pandemic wristbanddisclosed herein could be scanned also at airports to allow a thirdparty to associate the green light to a specific name to be comparedwith the user's ID card or passport and provide a confirmation that thewearer is indeed free to travel.

In summary, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure,priority testing will be granted to the user in case light (115) isturned on or flashes. That light will stay on or flash in case the testresults come back positive and will stay on until a) the user has metthe required amount of time taken for the user to be free of the diseaseby just quarantining or b) meeting the required testing protocols fornegative results showing a disease-free condition. On the other hand,light (120), whether in combination with the above procedure or not,will turn green to be used as a passport once immunity has beendetermined, for whatever length of time has been determined for thepandemic disease at issue.

If desired, the device according to the present disclosure can include acontrollable lock or similar arrangement to prevent the device frombeing borrowed, stolen, lost or forgotten, thus providing a strongerreliability indicator also for places that do not require IDs, such asstores or sports gatherings. In particular, there are instances in whicha removable wristband should be avoided as it could lead to a falsesense of security and higher risk of infections if not worn at all timeswhen around others.

The main body including the watch face (110) can also optionallyinclude, on its top portion, a plurality of holes (105), e.g. threeholes, for inclusion of medical alert charms or other types of charmssuch as cancer survivor, positive feeling, heart, USA charm and so on.Insertion of the charms can occur, for example, through a rubber bandlooping through the holes and then looping the charm.

In terms of initial distribution, the pandemic wristbands can be sentnationally or globally to every person by or on behalf of the U.S. orforeign government using, for example, census information. Alternativelyor in addition, such devices may be distributed at testing sites,medical facilities, shelters, through the World Health Organization,and/or additional allocated locations decided upon within each state ornation/country.

It is likely that individuals belonging to different countries may besubject to different COVID-free or pandemic-free proof requirements.However, it is clear that proof of vaccination will soon become animportant requirement of everyday life, not only nationally but alsointernationally. A possible way of implementation of the teachings ofthe present disclosure in the US (but it could equally apply to anycountry) could be that of requiring each individual travelling to the USto wear a US-regulated pandemic wristband as described herein for theduration of their stay in the US and be able to attend social events inthe US as long as a green light is shown on their device.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, wristbands sentthrough the census will already have name and address of the useralready downloaded and encoded through the QR code (135) together withan ID (140). The user will be able to add additional optionalinformation by accessing a website indicated on the face in sections(125, 130). On the other hand, when distributed locally, the ID number(140) may be present, while the username and address can be added byscanning the QR code (135) at the local facility in order to add suchinformation. Additional optional information can be added either at thefacility or by accessing a web link, as noted above. The person skilledin the art will understand that other initialization and updateprocedures may be possible, the above examples just showing exemplaryways of how such procedures can be performed. By way of example,visibility of the ID number (140) may be controllable by hiding, coding,encrypting and/or similarly managing the ID to protect the user'sprivacy. Additionally, the ID number may be provided to the userseparately from the wristband and/or an online access (possibly with aphone number if clarification is requested by the user) be provided forinitialization and/or further use.

By way of example, each pandemic wristband will have a person's name,address and unique ID number downloaded in the built-in wristbandprocessor and memory. Upon receipt, each person will be able to goonline and add any pertinent information that will help save their lifein the event they are infected with COVID-19 (or other kind of pandemicdisease) and especially if unresponsive. Information such as phonenumber, medical issues, allergies, whether the individual previouslytested positive or not, medication, emergency contact, number of familymembers, pets, insurance, occupation etc. will be optional and helpfulto save the wearers and notify their family or emergency contact. Inother words, only information individuals are willing to provide will bedownloaded under an ID number. Such information will then be sent to thepandemic wristband and encoded into QR code (135) without any privacyrisk, as it would instead occur in case a cell phone is used.
